Question

What is typecasting in C?

Answer 1

Typecasting is the process to convert a variable from one datatype to another.  If we want to store the large type value to an int type, then we will convert the data type into another data type explicitly.

Syntax: (data_type)expression;

For Example:

int x;
for(x=97; x<=122; x++)
{
   printf("%c", (char)x);   /*Explicit casting from int to char*/
}
